Biking and Hiking

There are more than seven miles of mapped bicycle trails
through fascinating woodland sand dunes, leading to beaches
and to the National Seashore Visitor Center. The Province
Lands Bike Trail, a paved path for bikers, hikers and rollerbladers,
loops around and through extraordinary terrain, making it
one of the most unusual biking and hiking trails on Cape
Cod. If you are looking for a more challenging bike ride, the Cape Cod Bike
Trail is just twenty minutes away by car. Starting in Wellfleet
you can bike forty miles round trip through sand dunes, pitch
pines, cedar forests and kettle ponds all the way to Brewster
and back.

Walking the length of Commercial Street is a favorite activity
year-round, but there are also routes for more solitary and
scenic hikes to town through the dunes; by ponds, salt marshes
and cedar swamps. A walk to town from Bay Harbour along the
tidal flats at almost anytime of day when the tide is out
can be a surreal experience.

Fishing and MarinasSport fishing charters, for blue fish,
striped bass and even blue fin tuna, are available to transport
you from McMillan Warf and the Town Pier to Stellwagon Bank
only 10 miles away. Stellwagon Bank, a national marine sanctuary,
is one of the most abundant fishing grounds on the entire
east coast. Also available for rent are small outboards for
an afternoon of leisurely flounder fishing. Surfcasting for “stripers” on
the outer beaches is another favorite spot for locals as
well as many visitors, who return annually, to catch the
delicious sports fish. Marina space is available for yacht
owners downtown or you can moor your runabout off your own
private beach with your comings and goings restricted only
by the tides.
